Paperie Blog Tour

I was super excited when Amy told me she was going to start designing fabric. I met her in person a couple years ago through our mutual friend Amy. We are lucky to live closeby, so we've been meeting up ever since. I got to work with Paperie earlier when I made Amy a couple things for her booth at last year's fall market. Without question, I just had to make another quilt. I used every Paperie print as well as some solids. My favorite print is definitely Manuscript - the navy one. The pattern is Cozies Flannel. I chose this pattern because it reminds me of the Irish Chain pattern. Irish Chain is one of my favorite patterns. So simple yet stunning.

This beauty finishes at 54" x 54". A perfect quilt for late night TV watching. :)

I quilted it using straight lines both horizontally and vertically. I kinda love it and I'm definitely going to make this quilt again. This is also a great pattern if you are just learning to quilt.

Be sure to check out other awesome Paperie projects by these amazing makers.

Best part - Amy is giving away Paperie Love Letters. If you'd like to win one, leave a comment. Let me know what your favorite quilt pattern is or what you enjoy sewing / making the most. You have until Wednesday, Feb 10th, 7:00pm (PST).... a winner will be picked randomly.

Again, thanks for stopping by. If you don't have Paperie yet, go get some now. It's a limited edition and once it's gone, it's gone.

First to comment, wow:-) My favorite quilt pattern is Swoon and my favorite quilt blocks are those with stars. I just love them. Love your quilt it's great and stunning yet simple ... always the best combination!

Jennifer, your quilt is beautiful--and in your photo it looks like soft ribbons of fabric woven together (you know, that kind of weaving we did in grade school with paper!). I'm a beginner, so I stick to small things like table runners, coasters, mini quilts at the moment. Very glad to hear that this is an easy pattern :)

Right now I'm learning (and loving) all about Half-square triangles and the secondary patterns that appear while arranging them. I don't have any Paperie , my LQS doesn't stock it, but I love seeing the fun that ya'll are having with it.

I love your quilt! It has a sweet, soft feel and really showcases Paperie beautifully. Irish chain is one of my favorites too, I also love Dresden plate, log cabin and hexie quilts. So hard to pick just one. I love sewing! Even tiny projects like pincushions, zippy pouches, pillows and dolls bring me joy during the whole making process! Makes me happy to make pretty things for the people I love. ✨💗✨

Sunny, my favorite quick things to sew/quilt are fabric baskets, 6"X10" or a little bigger. Perfect for holding kitchen coffee pods, or notions or fat quarters in the sewing room . Cozies Flannel sounds so perfect, warm and exactly whats in order to cuddle up late night. Thank you for sharing in Paperie, what a subtle collection.

im currently working on my very first quilt but I have a whole list of things I'm hoping to make- dress for daughter, table runner, mini quilt wall hanging, romper for baby boy 🙂 Love all the ideas from your blog and ig feed

Loooove anything I can make with flannel!! (am a Flannel Addict! lol)...Love your Quilt! I don't have a Favorite Pattern really...is usually the one I am making right at the time :)Thanks for chance to win your Give-a-way too!

I have so many things that I like to sew and am always making something new and different. It's kind of like my cooking...I rarely make the same recipe twice. Life is too short to make the same thing over and over. I do prefer smaller quilts, like baby or crib sized just because they are easier to manage. I'm up for anything!

How pretty your quilt is. I do not have a favorite quilt pattern. I love them all and want to make them all. Ha! Not enough time for that is there? I bought some Paperie to make some wee little dresses for my new granddaughter. I think they are perfect for that.

Thank you for this giveaway. I love to sew quilted bags and pouches. I am a beginner quilter too. I have many ideas for the use of this wonderful fabric, if I am lucky. Aparna MulgundAparnamulgund@sbcglobal.net

Love your design with these sweet fabrics. Right now, my favorite quilt pattern to use is hexis. I love to see sweet dresses and outfits for my 6 young grandchildren especially with these gorgeous fabrics. They are so inspiring.
